26、 There are no right or wrong signals, only cultural differences. Lack of cultural understanding will lead to disagreement among people from different cultures. Meeting with other cultures is actually very interesting and fun. It is certainly a great topic to discuss over a cup of coffee and cakes.
The gesture “thumbs-up” is commonly misunderstood. In English, it is known as “thumbs up”, though the action is commonly performed with only one hand. English-speaking Caucasians use it to signal “OK”, which is the same meaning as OK ring gesture. The two can in fact be used instead of each other.
To most Europeans, it signals the number 1, since they count from 1 to 5 beginning with the thumb for 1 and ending with the little finger for 5. Other nationalities, like Americans, usually start counting on the index finger for 1, and end with the thumb.
Avoid using this gesture in Southern Sardinia or Northern Greece unless you want to invite a fight. While Americans, the British and Australians would use the thumbs-up sign to signal for hitch-hiking, this message will not encourage a Northern Greek driver or motorist to stop to give them a ride.
What does the “OK” sign mean to you? If you are an English-speaking Caucasian, it means “OK” or “good”. The French understand it as “zero” or “worthless”. The Japanese would read it as “money”.
Don’t show this gesture to a Greek. Ancient Greek vases have been found showing this gesture as an insult. So, if you use this sign in Greece to tell a person that he is “OK”, he will feel insulted. Other regions where this sign can be insulting are Turkey, Malta, Sardinia, Tunisia, Russia, the Middle East, Paraguay, and Brazil.
【1】What does the “thumbs-up” gesture show among English-speaking Caucasians?
A.Agreement. B.Respect. C.Calmness. D.Disappointment.
【2】What number does the thumbs-up most probably stand for in America?
A.1. B.2. C.4. D.5.
【3】What should be avoided if you are in the Middle East?
A.Asking for a lift. B.Giving the “OK” sign.
C.Trying to speak English. D.Showing the gesture “thumbs-up”.
【4】What does the text mainly talk about?
A.The function of body language. B.How to communicate with foreigners.
C.The different meanings of two gestures. D.The importance of learning about other cultures.
27、In 1907, Leo Baekeland invented Bakelite — the first ever plastic. Since then, plastics have been used widely in various industries and people’s lives. Plastic bags were introduced to supermarkets in 1977. Now, 160,000 plastic bags are used globally every second!
【1】 However, they are extremely inconvenient for the earth:
Plastic bags live on much, much longer — perhaps as much as 1,000 years in a landfill (垃圾填埋地).
When plastic breaks down in the ocean, it doesn’t break down completely. 【2】 The toxic (有毒的) chemicals from the plastic waste then enter the food chain.
Plastic bags cause the death of many sea animals when they are mistaken for food. In 2008, a whale was found beached in California. It died due to the more than 22 kilos of plastic found in its stomach.
【3】 However, sometimes you get to the store and realize you left your reusable shopping bag at home.
The key to improving our environmental behavior is to make a plan. And you should build your environmental muscle memory: Put your recyclable bags somewhere that will ensure you always remember to bring them with you.
If you drive to the store, keep your bags in your car. 【4】 If you walk, store your reusable bags near your front door.
Through this act of green, you have created a plan to ensure you will always have your reusable grocery bags on hand when you need them. 【5】 So build a plan and keep to it!
A．If you bike, keep them in your basket.
B．But it only counts if you stick to the plan.
C．It remains harmful even when it breaks down.
D．Plastic bags are billed for their “convenience”.
E．It just gets smaller and ends up getting eaten by fish.
F．So we know that we should never use plastic grocery bags.
G．You’ll feel proud when you see what a difference you’ve made!
28、 There are almost limitless things to do at the seaside. For an enjoyable summer day or night, some that are the most fun can be simple, inexpensive or absolutely free.
Frolic: Summer at the seaside is for as many activities as you can stand in the sand. Play frisbee(飞盘), sand volleyball or any beach-free sport. Jog or run while you feel the soft sand each step. If it’s nice and windy, go fly a kite!
Picnic: If you’re a bit lazy as you sun and relax on the beach, you can buy takeout(外卖食物)from nearby shops. If you’re there with a big family outing, you may prefer to pack and bring baskets of your favorite foods and drinks.
Sand castles: For anyone who wishes they were still kids, building castles in the sand is fun at the seashore. If you’re feeling really creative, add fishes, frogs and whatever else your modeling skills can construct.
Explore: If there are hiking or biking trails along the shore or nearby, take an action to discover what’s around to be collected. Seashells and washed-up ocean flora(植物群) are fun to hunt, although finding a valuable diamond ring in the sand is much more satisfying.
Socialize: Meet all kinds of people. If kids are with you, they’re natural socializers, and will easily join others in games and other fun things to do together. Set up a volleyball net on the beach, and soon others will join the game.
Nothing: For some people the top activity at the seaside is inactivity. That means doing absolutely nothing. After all, you’ve come to the beach to relax on the warm sand, and nowhere in the world is a more comfortable place.

29、 A ship was wrecked(遭遇沉船) during storm at sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small island.
The two survivors, also good friends, not knowing what else to do, agreed that they had no other choice but to pray to God. However, to find out whose prayer was more powerful, they divided the land between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.
The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree beside him and he ate its fruit. The other man's land remained barren(贫瘠的).
After a week, the first man was lonely so he prayed for a wife. The next day, another ship was completely destroyed, and the only woman survivor soon became his wife. On the other side of the island, there was still nothing.
Soon the first man prayed for a house clothes and more food. The next day, like magic, all of these were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.
Finally, the first man prayed for ship. In the morning, he found ship at his side of the island. The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island behind, because he considered the other man unworthy to receive God's blessings, since none of his prayers had been answered.
As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven, "Why are you leaving your companion on the island?"
“My blessings are mine alone, since I was the one who prayed for them,” the first man answered. “His prayers were all unanswered and so he does not deserve anything.”
“You are mistaken!” the voice rebuked him. “He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings.”
“Tell me,” the first man asked with great curiosity, “What did he pray for that should owe him anything?”
“He prayed that all your prayers be answered.”

31、Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
The Floating School
Life on the islands can feel a bit isolated due to a lack of electricity and internet connectivity.
Although some of the islands have primary schools, most young people must travel to the larger islands or to the mainland to attend high school. Schools on the islands follow the 【1】 curriculum (课程). They don't teach subjects such as maritime skills, swimming or local fishing traditions, and so the curriculum isn't always 【2】 with students' everyday life.
So, we 【3】 the Floating School after winning funding through a US State Department grant competition called Seeds for the Future. Before we started the school, we spoke with young people, community leaders and teachers on the islands to find out the topics young people are most interested in. We also learned about the various 【4】 of students and young people who don't go to school. Thus, we 【5】 our own non-formal educational programme that fits with the context of life on the islands. For example, those working in fishing have responsibility 【6】 the marine life, so we teach environmental protection and discourage destructive fishing practices.
The Floating School is a wooden boat that can 【7】 up to twenty people and it goes to the students, not the other way around -- we use it to transport educational materials, tools, and teachers to young people living on the islands. Our teachers are local young 【8】— so far we have had journalists, photographers, computer engineers and musicians — and students who want to 【9】 their skills.
At first, many of the young people thought the Floating School would be the same as their schools on the islands. They had thought of the teachers to be 【10】. But our students learn through art, media and literature. They don't have to wear uniforms or shoes, and the teachers treat the students as equals, without judging them. This means our students can be themselves.
